| Re: Tegretol and frisium while pregnant?
I don't take those, but I take some other meds. Anytime you have to take meds like that, or have a serious condition, they classify you as "high risk" that doesnt'nessecarrily mean that you are. I went to see a maternal fetal medicine dr ( a high risk dr.) and he told us that although many drugs are classified that way, only a few are really that dangerous, and that even though I was classified as high risk, he didnt' even see it that way, which made me feel much better! Really, having a seizure during pregnancy is alot more dangerous than taking the meds. Most likely they will just put you on high doses of folic acid, and monitor you a alittle more closely. For instance, whereas most women only have one or two ultraounds, I have had to go have two done at the specialists, and have had to have them every three weeks for growth for three months now, and will continue until the end (7 weeks from now!)
Good luck!
